Demise of the Undertaker's WIfe: A Short Story Collection

Více o knize

Demise of the Undertaker's Wife is an impressive debut from Anne Walsh Donnelly. With her close observation of the human psyche, her razor-sharp pen delineates the world of murder, cruelty, control, with an eye that is sharp, unsettling and clearly demonstrates her lyrical talent. She shines a spotlight on the brokenness of life, the fear of silence and the desperate need for the characters to find someone to communicate with, whether it is with Iscariot or the Angel Gabriel. The voices are always true and convincing. I still cannot get the demise of the poor undertaker's wife out of my head. That's exactly what a good short story should do. Geraldine Mills, author and poet, co-author of The Other Side of Longing and author of Lick of the Lizard.
